Cor Memories Podcast: I Want My MTV!

Corey Chapman

In this episode of Cor Memories, we rewind to the moment a new channel forever changed music and pop culture—MTV. From the very first broadcast in 1981 to the explosion of music videos that turned unknown bands into household names, we revisit the energy, excitement, and growing pains of a cultural revolution.

Join us as we remember the VJs who became our after-school companions, the videos that pushed boundaries, and the way MTV reshaped how a generation discovered music. It wasn’t just television—it was a movement, a mirror of the times, and the backdrop to countless memories.

If you ever said “I want my MTV,” this episode is a trip back to when the music really did meet the television.
